Reclaimed Wood Trim

[Fedkrma]

Has anyone replaced, painted the wood within the cabin of the car? Any videos available that shows how to remove them? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you

I used Watco Oil on my reclaimed wood. Looks as good, if not better, then new. The Watco oil can be applied without having to remove the wood so it's a very easy solution to prolonging the life and beauty of the wood. If the wood is rough, you can apply the Watco oil with a little steel wool. I've been using Watco oil as a bare wood finish for many decades and will continue to use it.

Thanks marswill! I actually want to remove and wrap, then reinstall. Looking for help removing, so I don't break. Thanks again!

It's been so long ago I removed one and wrapped it in carbon fiber came out great.They come out very easy go between the dash pad and the wood with a thin screwdriver and pop out the wood it's held in by a couple of clips. I use a trim panel removal tool almost looks like a paint stick.

Already figured that out. Thanks again. By the way, they marketed the car with reclaimed wood, but the pieces are plastic. Maybe a paper thin laminate over the plastic. Crazy!

Nothing crazy and not ascam. Actually it's the case in ALL cars - it's just a veneer. Certainly you don't think all that wood in Jaguars, Bentleys, Mercedes, ect are solid blocks/boards of wood all over the dash.

Anyone else remember when it was all solid wood though? My old Rovers, Jags and MGs all had beautiful thick slabs of burlwood for dashboards, door caps and trim. One of our rovers even had solid burlwood picnic tables and crystal glassware that folded out of the back. Just gorgeous with chrome trim and cream leather.
